Agnieszka Korzeniewska (Aggie)
Psychotherapist, EMDR & Breathwork Therapist specialising in maternal mental health, including birth trauma
I’m a psychotherapist, EMDR and breathwork therapist specialising in maternal mental health, including birth trauma. I work with women who want to feel more at ease in motherhood and in their lives. If you’re tired of carrying the weight of everything and wish someone could take care of you for once, I’m here.
When you have a baby, life changes. Becoming a mother changes your identity, your days and the way you do things. Holding your child can also bring up wounds from your own childhood, and you may find yourself becoming a parent you never wanted to be.
If you find it hard to bond with your child, whatever their age, or you feel you’re losing yourself in motherhood and you don’t understand why, this is what I’m here for.
In weekly therapy, we meet, talk, breathe and look at what’s hurting. I believe the heart of therapy for mothers is discovering who you truly are, so you can be a mother in a way that is truly yours. The work centres on our relationship, and on understanding and healing whatever is making motherhood feel difficult, including old wounds from your childhood or past relationships.
If you’d rather not talk it all through, breathwork lets you simply sit or lie down and breathe, while your body does the healing.
With EMDR, we can process a specific trauma, whether from your childhood, your parenting or your birth. If your birth left you feeling shaken, unseen or disconnected, you are not alone. Alongside weekly therapy, I offer short-term, intensive EMDR therapy for birth trauma, because I want you to feel at ease as quickly as possible, so you can connect with your baby and enjoy motherhood. To find out how the intensive works, visit my website.
I offer therapy online and in person in North London (N19) and Central London (W2). Birth trauma therapy can also be arranged in your own home in North or Central London.
If you’re pregnant, I also offer a series of rebirthing breathwork sessions to prepare you for birth. Our bodies remember everything we have been through, including our own birth. Breathwork sessions before you give birth can help release old memories and beliefs held in the body, preparing you and your baby for birth.
If you’re neurodivergent or parenting a neurodivergent child, you’re welcome here as you are. I have therapeutic training in supporting neurodivergent women and mothers, as well as lived experience of ADHD. Every family with ADHD or autism has its own nuance, and I would be glad to explore yours with you.
I’ve worked with women for over fifteen years, and I’m a BACP- and NCPS-registered psychotherapist with EMDR certification from EMDR Europe and training in rebirthing breathwork and conscious breathing for trauma recovery. I’m also the UK National Representative for the International Breathwork Foundation.
Mothering in a way that is truly yours. That’s what I’m here to help you find.
